Al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden's four wives and more than a dozen children were sheltered in Iran. They were probably given shelter by Iran's "zealously anti-American Revolutionary Guards," Time Magazine reported Tuesday, quoting a Pakistani intelligence source.

"This source also claimed that bin Laden's lieutenant and ideologue, Egyptian doctor Ayman al-Zawahiri, had left the region on an unknown mission, but had returned to Pakistan and was now believed to be hiding with his terrorist chief," the Time report said. (Albawaba.com)
